The Catastrophic Theatre
Tonight is the very last night of HAPPINESS. Only three seats left. We always can get more people in for ledge seating. 713-522-2723 to get on that list. We have some overflow seating (called the "Loft") that can accommodate up to 9 people, but may not be right for everyone. You can get a general idea of it here. If it looks good to you, call us at 713-522-2723 to reserve your spot.
